Mr. Wash Floyd, Of Ncwbcrry, is

Miss Bessie Henderson, one Of
our most charming young ladies is

ton.
The p%etrons Of the school Mt this
place have employed the Rev II w
Seymour, to instruct the young
minds OF this place, we think this II
good selection as we know Mr. Scy-
mOur, to be n competent i'm every
respect to discharge the duties inn
nnSnI t,t,nn HIM nn ,,tfl,
operation Of the community. We
bespcak for him a brilliant success.
We have noticed for some years
ut this place that the most Of the
patrons pay more attention TO the
whims OF their children than to the
helping of their instructor, and
under the same administration of
things they may never expect to
have Il school at this place that will
compare with Our sister towns.
Now as we have good man, let us
all strive to make this n Ofthe
best schools that we have had, and
builcd up II that will be II credit
to u town.
Miss Lou Anderson, Of Tip To-,
who has been visiting relatives for
some time has returned home.
We noticed some time since that
the Clinton correspondent seems to
be posted on thc ways and belief Of
tee good people Of this town. Now
we don't want to discourage our
young correspondent on the first
attempt ut his knowledge of what
they thought of Mr. Lcitch and
Marshall, but we will simply say to
him that all the good as well us
the bad Of this town turned out to
hear him, and with the exception
of one or two in this town they
spoke in the highest terms ofhim
aud If he were to come to this place
tomorrow | don't know Of IL place
in the county that he would meet
with Il warmer reception. Now
my advice to II Clinton friend is
that if he will keep up with the
Dots from that place we think
that he will have as much as he
a attend to, and when we from
this section want any help we GER
tainly will get it from a different
source
We certainly have II Of the
most lenient and lovcable councils
that ever presided over a set Of
people, they are so accommodating
that they have never us yet c0llcc-
ted the taxes due, and as for asses
mcnts, why that is thing they
never heard of, when they know
that 1t is their duty to appoint n
board Of assessors, whose duty il is
to make an assessment Of all prop
crty within the incorporate limits
the town, and the clerk OF council
has certain duties which have new
or been Performed. Now this
clerk is paid II certain salary to
prcform certain duties, and one Of
the taxpayers OF the town. We
would like for the business to be
conducted in n proper way or else
apply to the Legislature to repeal
tn" charter and do away with II
city proclivitics.
